While its true its about the design and yes I know its a system [amps dont sound so hot without source cords loudspeakers etc.] But I have owned enofe amps and can tell what dif tubes bring to the party so to speak so the ?I dont find 45 to sound soft or forgiving and when in the rt design and with rt loudspeaker they can have great frequincy range that I havent heard from other tubes but the low power can limit this if the loudspeakers not rt. I have heard 211 nice sound for sure many ways to skin the audio cat but I dont think he would like any of them :)
What would you say is the better sounding SET amp?
45 ,VT52 ,2A3 ,300B ,845 ,EL34 ,6550, KT88 etc I know theres others .I have messed with many SETs and keep going back to 45 SET.Just wondering what other SET types think
